Chapter 196 Ming General

Kuchukhan has an iconic Tatar face, and wrinkles have been deeply engraved into his skin by the years. This battle has been fought for too long.

It was so long that people even forgot why the war started. Yermak, who had been so long that he was fighting against him, didn't even know that his opponent was an old man who could not hear or see.

Tribes on the Siberian grasslands rose with the war and were also destroyed with wars.

Although the capital was taken away, he still stood here, and was still the Khan of Siberia. Whoever fought with him would repay the war until he reached the end of his life.

Where did this war begin? It began with the demise of the Kazan Khanate.

How did the Kazan Khanate perish? In the civil war, one of the Khan contenders requested reinforcements from the Principality of Moscow. Ivan IV's troops entered Kazan and refused to leave. When the Moscow puppet was overthrown, they used this excuse to enter Kazan.

The entire war was almost one-sided, with an army of 150,000 and a marching and logistics supply line of 1,000 kilometers. Two months ago, the troops were at the city of Kazan and besieged the city with trenches. The shooting army, who was skilled in hand-to-hand combat, and purchased 150 artillery pieces from the Moscow Company in England, besieged the Kazan army in the city.

Two more months later, the advice of the English consultant in the army was adopted to dig tunnels and bury black gunpowder, overturn the city wall, and then the Russian army rushed into the city to capture the strong city, avoiding the dilemma of being under the city in winter.

The shock that the war brought to Kuchukhan was unparalleled, but sadly, he was on the east side of the Ural Mountains, and he had no helpers to learn from. The sable in the deep swamp forest could not tell him how to fight the war, nor could he sell him the invincible magical weapons.

If there is anything else that the young Kuchukhan could learn, it is that Tsarist Russia is an extremely dangerous external threat, and we must first kill the heir of the Khan who wanted to ask for reinforcements from the terrifying Ivan.

He did this. The Turkic Khan violated Genghis Khan's iron rule that he could not be called Khan by a golden family and attracted Ivan's reinforcements. After chaotic civil war, Kuchukhan finally won and killed Yagdir.

How long can people survive in the war of extermination on the grassland? The twenty-year civil war consumed all the two generations on the grassland. Young people had long known why the war started, and only knew that offering fur to the fierce and cunning Cossacks might avoid war.

Kuchukhan doesn't want to do this.

He declared war on Yagdir not only because of the Khan throne, but also because he was a servant of his ancestors, and could not command him high above.

But when Yagdir was killed, Kuchukhan ascended the throne of the Khan and regained the country belonging to his ancestors. There was almost no trade-off between pros and cons. On the first day of his reign, he executed the Tsarist Russian envoys in Siberia, dissolved the vassal ties, and sent troops to attack the Tsarist Russian outpost on the border.

At that time, Kuchukhan was clear-headed and clear-headed. It didn't matter whether the so-called Grand Duchy of Moscow or Tsarist Russia. No matter what they were, in Kuchukhan's eyes, they were the slaves of his ancestors, the Ross people.

The declaration of war was not due to national justice, but the honor of the Golden Family and the responsibility of the Khan, and it was also related to Kuchukhan's inner dignity of unwilling to be enslaved.

Even if the slaves of our ancestors become powerful, they can destroy his Khanate and kill his lords, and they must not let him bow down and surrender.

Anyone can choose to survive in humiliation, and Kuchukhan has no choice but to fight to the end and fight with his life.

The people of the Siberian Khanate did not let him down.

On the slight hills of the increasingly cold plain, Kuchukhan did not ride a horse, and tried his best to straighten his back. He supported his long scepter with both hands, stubbornly covered in padlock mail, and a cone-topped iron helmet on his head, and announced his plan loudly to the leaders coming from all over the country.

The strong Golden Family juniors on both sides supported the elders and carefully tried hard on Kuchukhan's arms, making Dahan, who had long been unable to see things clearly, turn his face in the direction of crowds.

After the Ming and Ha coalition forces were injured and injured in the post station to defend, there were only 1,880 people left, including 480 Kazakhstan elite cavalry, and the Ming army had a fully organized Ministry of Households, and some technical talents who explored intelligence.

At this moment, more than 1,800 elite coalition forces stationed their troops on the river bank 170 miles southwest of the Kuchu Khan Alliance.

The envoy sent to participate in the alliance was an intermediate officer seconded from the Ningxia Western Expedition Army because he was familiar with the combat methods of the northern nomadic cavalry. He was appointed as a guerrilla general.

He is a Mongolian man named Xubai.

Xibai was an extremely outstanding intermediate officer in the Ming army. In his early years, he was the son of the chief of the small tribe under the command of Ying Taiji, the Mongolian minister. Because he offended Taiji, his father and brother died in tribal disputes. Only he led a few tribes to bow to the gate and ask to surrender to the garrison Zheng Yin.

Because of his own subordinates, he was appointed as the chief general and then fought for the Ningxia border of the Ming Dynasty. In his previous battles, he made many military achievements with his bravery and surrendered to the Mongolian tribes.

By the Wanli year, He was promoted to a guerrilla general, and had hundreds of unpopular outlaws on the Mongolian grasslands. These people became his family army and were also the national defense force that Ningxia’s border defense was highly relied on.

At this time, Huobai had served for the Ming Dynasty for twenty years. He was already old and was fifty-seven. He was a veteran and should not have participated in this long-distance expedition.

However, he was unwilling to retire in a mere guerrilla life for several years, and wanted to find a way out for his son and many adopted sons, so he asked for his orders to come out of seclusion.

I thought it would be fine if I had a fight with the Yarkand Khanate, but I didn't expect that the general group of the Western Expedition was too luxurious. He, a guerrilla general, could not even be on the table. When the pass was out, Qi Jiguang was seconded to a person who knew the enemy's responsibilities, he volunteered to follow him.

He did not bring any troops, but only brought Xu Yun, a member of the Han family's army, Tu Wenxiu and several of his adopted sons and confidants. The troops were all under the command of the Gansu general Tong Deng, and his eldest son Xu Chengen.

On the hillside, Kuchukhan called on the leaders of various tribes to fight against the Tsar's troops and regain the city of Iskell, which belonged to the Golden Family.

He Bai disagreed with what Ku Chuhan said, and took his adopted sons to hold his arms and listened slightly with his face, expressionless.

His eyes were rudely focused on Kuchukhan's face covering the iron armor, looking at Kuchukhan's eyes.

It was a pair of eyes with white cataracts. This disease was a terminal illness in the Ming Dynasty and was an internal eye disease. Due to the severity and color, it was divided into more than 20 diseases. The symptoms were mainly caused by impairment in the eyes, mostly blue-white.

The only treatment method is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, called golden needle removal. After treatment, the patient can see the light again, but it will be followed by severe hyperopia, which can protect the light for several years, and will eventually become completely blind.

Looking at these white eyes, what he thought of was power in his mind.

What kind of force is it that supports this old man who is older than himself, and is an old blind man who has been fighting against a country for twenty years?

He didn't understand that Hubai had never had such power.
